Description
What changed?
Previously, formio.js would unfocus the search bar when navigating the select component with the up and down keyboard arrows. This PR replaces this behavior by modifying the selectHighlightedChoice function to use the addItem choicesjs function instead of the handleChoiceAction choicesjs function. This allows the selectHighlightedChoices function to behave more like a highlighting choices instead of selecting choices when navigating using arrow keys.
